Not in My Backyard crowd told to move on
Move over NIMBYs, it is time to meet 20-year-old Madison McVie.
NIMBY stands for “Not in my back yard’’ and McVie wants Wellington city councillors discussing the future of Wellington to ignore those who do not favour growth in the city.
The council is looking at removing demolition protection for many pre-1930s buildings and allowing eight-storey new builds, in areas close to railway stations and areas like Johnsonville.
McVie told councillors that she cannot understand why some people oppose the move to bring vibrancy to the city.
“I just think it is great, so please build more houses in my backyard. I would appreciate that."

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
